B&M 2024 Remembrance of the Daleks – Emperor Davros

This set is due in-store in September.

As a last resort you can search for this set on www.ebay.co.uk

Character Options is delighted to reveal details of the first Doctor Who Collector Sets for B&M Stores, for 2024. Available in September, these two exciting new sets will be the perfect addition to any fan’s collection.

For fans of one of the Doctor’s most feared enemies, the first set boasts the fearsome Emperor Davros Collector Figure, and to further sate the demand from fans of the Daleks, the second offering is a new History of the Daleks set. Each pack features a comprehensive description, accompanied with details on the inspiration behind a summary of which is below.

As all fans know, Davros is the creator of the Doctor’s deadliest enemies, the Daleks. In this special set, the evil genius is depicted as in the 1988 (Corrected from 1982 in the press release) episode “Remembrance of the Daleks” partially mutated with one functioning hand, a cybernetic eye mounted on his forehead he is encased in his self-designed cream and gold support chair in place of his lower body – this mobile chair inspired his design of the Daleks. The box comes complete with a gold limited edition seal and an inner back drop that sets the scene for the Emperor Davros’s evil doings to come.

These new sets will be available in the coming weeks at local B&M Stores. The retail price will be determined by the store.

      If you watch Revelation of the Daleks. In the end battle between the Renegade and Necros Daleks in the tunnel, Roy Skelton goes a bit too Zippy in his portrayal but it is amusing.

      I always thought Emperor Davros looked like a zippy puppet. But it is a great design based on the TV21 version.

      On this Site, if you check out the Vinyl Records section in the Merchandise Guide, you’ll see a Matt Berry Television Themes (Including Dr Who) LP.
      On the cover (Believe it or not) is Zippy with Tom Baker.
      Always found it abit random having those Two Guys on the Cover of an LP.

    When you say 50/50 set for parting of the ways do you mean one human one dalek, and will that count as a history of the dalek set because I’m waiting for a journeys end or stolen earth set which looks to be in a year or two the way they release them hahaha

      Well the 5 drs was HOTD but that only had 1 dalek

    • FH

      September 9th, 2024 - 2:22pm

      Wouldn’t be one Dalek, one human for the parting of the ways set though. Five doctors only had one Dalek in it so that’s all they could have, whereas POTW has a plethora of Dalek designs to use, to the point that one set probably wouldn’t even cover it haha. Not to mention there’s no obvious choice for what human would go with a POTW set, so not sure where this speculation has come from, it doesn’t make any sense!

  • beef

    September 4th, 2024 - 3:38pm

    what’s the speculation on the parting of the ways set? Could we be getting some praetorian guards? I really hope so because I don’t think CO ever made those figures outside the 3.75 range. Hope there’s two POTW sets so that we can get all four guard variants but that’s probably wishful thinking.

      We got 2 in 3.75, got one in 5” (with the 2013 Dalek doctor wave). With the selection of Daleks for that story, I assume we’re getting updated door cutter Dalek, and a 50/50 split between two types of emperor guards. My guess as to the guards is the buzz saw and the sonic canon, but that’s all speculation

  • Mrs Croot

    I’m guessing that the friends and foes set needed more work done to it, because originally the announcement was the 3 pack being in this wave, and Davros being in the wave at the end of the year, so this was brought forward to fill the gap since this is an existing mould.

    Reply
    • Vladnag

      September 3rd, 2024 - 4:15pm

      You can see this in the product codes, with Davros ending in 15 and the Resurrection set ending in 12!

      I hope this means the three pack has some new mould, there’s a prototype hatless brigadier floating around so I’m assuming that’s in there

    • John

      September 3rd, 2024 - 10:04am

      Remembrance of the Daleks is the first serial of the 25th season of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. The serial was first broadcast in four weekly episodes from 5 to 26 October 1988. So 1982 is wrong

    • beef

      September 3rd, 2024 - 10:24am

      it says 1982 in the write-up so it must be 1982

    • Peter

      September 3rd, 2024 - 10:50am

      @beef I was born in 1984, and one of my earliest memories is watching “Remembrance of the Daleks” in October 1988. It’s most definitely 1988. Think of it this way: it’s a 7th Doc story… and there was no 7th Doc until 1987. Therefore, it can’t be 1982 and that writeup is just wrong (TBH I’ve found most of the writeups on the boxes quite poor and incorrect in places. Proof reader/editor for the box blurbs wouldn’t go amiss, as they usually just big slabs of barely intelligible text).

      Stavros! Is that an incredibly bizarre reference to Marvel US’s Doctor Who reprint comics in color in the middle 1980’s? I still have burned into my memory the “fact” page that had a terrible drawing of Davros labeled “Stavros” underneath it.

    • Rex F

      September 6th, 2024 - 8:09am

      Stavros was a Greek kebab shop owner played by Harry Enfield in comedy sketches in the early 80s, based on the man who ran his own local kebab shop (“‘Ello peeps!”). Occasionally a hapless writer would mix the two up and end up having the mickey taken out of them – those fans could be quite merciless! I never knew the mistake had even made it across the pond as well though…

      Is it though? He looks like he’s got jaundice and the wires have barely any colour compared to the original

      To be fair, the wires are very lackluster compared to the original, but I don’t understand the criticism with the face. That’s the second time I’ve seen someone say he looks like he’s got jaundice, but that’s literally how he looks in the episode and is far more accurate than the original release. I will say the promo pics do make it look a bit too sharp and that made me unsure a bit, but after seeing the videos of the actual figure, it actually looks much better and it works very well. So, I’d say above the neck, it’s better and more accurate, below the neck it’s worse and less accurate. I’m pretty okay with that. Painting the wires should be an easy job if it bothers me that much.

    I just hope that they are in my local B&M stores. The previous sets were impossible to get.
